On a Shelf lyrics

Why pretend so much? Pretend I'm like them It's not a copy of Dumb I'm just talking open-hearted Does this make sense? The way you shaped me Put me on a shelf And left me waiting What is happiness? What did Plato say? Maybe it's letting go Without making the same mistake I apologize This is not me I'm stuck somewhere In the past I can't see This weight will leave the world That's not really my style When my problems are solved Maybe it will take a while
